About

 

Welcome to Adam Dimech's Plant Evolution, a guided tour of the development of the world's plants.

 

This website was launched in 2000 and substantially-revised in 2004 (with minor updates since). In that time, it has grown to be one of the world's most popular sources of digital information about palaeobotany - or the science of plant evolution.

The site has been designed around the popular Plant Evolution Tour, where students can take a step-by-step walk through the ages. Where possible, images of significant fossils and plants have been presented.

I am always interested to receive feedback from the users of this site. So if you have any questions or comments, don't hesitate to contact me.

If you'd just like to know who I am, refer to my biography

I hope you enjoy Adam Dimech's Plant Evolution.

 

Regards,

Dr. Adam Dimech
